I think you're right and my hubby wouldn't like it one bit. I'd just like to experience it. They offered a 4 day out of New York to Princess Cays. Cruise price wasn't too bad, but the air fare was a killer. My hubby lucked out, for now anyway.

Penny, I'm with RichC and your hubby: it just looks too stuffy; elegant, but stuffy.

Somebody said here one time, and I wish I could remember who it was so I could give them the proper credit, but they said if you want to know if a cruise line or a ship is a good fit for you, see if you look like the people in the brochure. Penny, Cunard is not for me. Princess is "where I belong", to borrow an old slogan of theirs.
